In the past ten years of flying with BA and BD in Y I have never been asked to check my bag when travelling with a laptop bag and rollaboard. (KLM, AF, and OS when in long haul biz!!!, but never BA and BD)

I don't think I've even see them weigh a regular size bag at the gate.

And in the very, very, very, worst case - your bag will be checked at the gate. You'll get a tag there and then. Collect it when you land.

Simples.
Thanks! My concern was that I might have to back through ticketing to security. My 24hour+ travel PHL/ORD(meet someone)/LHR/EVN begins in 3 hours. I didn't want some unknown thing coming through. One can always count on somebody on FT as having both the knowledge and experience.
